IRIS vs FLASHMAPSSet 1: Heartbreak RidgeSet 2: DestinationSet 3: Neo MedusaSet 4: Shades of TwilightSet 5: Heartbreak RidgeResults + Show Spoiler +Set 1: Iris > Flash Proxy Facts! Set 2: Iris < Flash 5base > 2base Set 3: Iris < Flash After what appeared to be Iris taking a solid lead after a proxy rax, flash comes back after pushing for 20 minutes. Recommended game. Great play from both players, but demonstrates why flash is so good. Set 4: Iris < Flash Flash wins 3-1!!! Kind of what we all expected... three cheeses proxies from Iris, and even though it worked once, he couldn't stop flash's superior micro and macro and drop ship play and builds... Flash wins and also emerges the better play - by far. Iris was pretty much outclassed in these matches. GGs http://glowuniverse.com/storefrontprofiles/DeluxeSFItemDetail.aspx?sid=1&sfid=47917&c=25142&i=249278609 Well. Both players are really good (as to how far they have gotten). but who is better? this is where we find out.
Flash is 70% TvT win rate. so he is pretty (godd*m) good. Iris on the other hand is only 57%. These stats are pretty clear... in fact they are very clear. Flash is definitely the favorite here. The only thing I can see going for Iris is the fact that Flash hasnt played a TvT live in over 2 months. However, that just means hes been practicing all this time (hopefully) for this match. (a very safe liquid bet)
However Iris is no weakling, and didnt get here by accident and has Also probably been practicing. (another safe liquid bet)
I predict Flash to win the series, however i could easily see Iris taking one or even two games off of him. Lets hope for some cheese and good games shall we.

All of us KT fans are recovering from "Finger Boom" trauma and the shock of seeing ForGG win a game.

Iris is 21-12 since May, but more than that, he eliminated  EffOrt and  Bisu from GOM and MSL. Respectively—and there’s not much room for debate on this—those two are some of the strongest ZvT and PvT players in the world. And the craziest part is that Iris is best-known for his TvT.

This is a very interesting point, to which I have prepared a rebuttal:

I am aware of that, and i also understand that iris's road to the finals was undeniably harder than flash's, but flash is still supposed to be a TvT wizard, even though Iris is also supposed to be really good . i see your point.
however i just want to show the fact that flash is 10 out of 10 for his last TvT matches.
which can kind of just be ignored because, as i said, the most recent was 2 months ago.
@motbob: Lolthx.
@orbifold: Lol nice. finger.... BOOOOOOOOOOM!
im just going to do that instead of quoting people is that chill with everyone?

True, Iris is excellent TvT player, second only to Flash, question is, can his brutal offense overcome Flash's precise unbreakable defense? Only games will gives us ansver.

Interesting edit on the old phrase. Just over two years and it seems like we've come full circle.
EDIT: Wow was I the first person to get where this came from?
